Mrs. Sylvia Thompson played the wedding

handsome home in Brookf field and settled
down to the sober, but pleasant realities Of
married life. We wish them JOY and happi
ness, and long and useful life. T.

The masquerade entertainment at the
Turner Hall, on Monday evening, was more
numerously attended than any similar occns
ion in this city. The large hall was crowded
with people every where. The galleries were
so filled that half Of the spectators caught
only glances now and then Of the floor
below, and the masquers were so thick that,
for a time, dancing was almost impossible
till their numbers were considerably thinned
out. Willis orchestra furnished excellent
music. At midnight the lads and lasses re
paired to Jos. Hansmans, where they found
a splendid supper. The prizes were won
as follows: groups, "The Ottawa boat club,
FIVE ladies, Mrs. G. W. Ravens, Mrs. Jacob
